Episode 48 of the conversations between Yogita Pant and Anil Chawla starts with an introduction of Shabree who is often portrayed as a stupid devotee of Ram who fed him wild half-eaten fruits. According to Valmikiy Ramayan, Shabree was a learned women sage who was waiting for Ram and Lakshman on the orders of her gurus. Shabree waited for about thirteen years. Shabree’s commitment to the path of dharm is indeed a glorious example of a women’s righteousness. On the request of Ram, Shabree showed the brothers Matang Van, the forest where Shabree’s ashram was located. Shabree also showed them Sapt Sagar Teerth where water from seven oceans had come. Ram and Laxman took bath in Sapt Sagar Teerth. Shabree stepped into fire after meeting Ram and Lakshamn and moved to the other world shedding her physical body. Ram and Lakshamn moved to the other side of Pampa Sarovar to meet Sugreev. This episode marks the end of Aranya Kand, the most terrible period of Ram’s life.  (Ref. Chapters 74 and 75, Aranya Kand, Shreemad Valmikiy Ramayan)  ***** श्रीमद्वाल्मीकीय रामायण विश्व का  प्राचीनतम ग्रन्थ है। इसे आदिग्रन्थ कहा गया है। इसमें राम के जीवन का विस्तारपूर्वक वर्णन किया गया है। इसमें राम का चित्रण एक ऐसे मनुष्य के रूप में किया गया है जो संघर्ष करता है, परिश्रम करता है, जीवन के द्वन्द्वों का सामना करता है, अपने सहयोगियों एवं निकटस्थ व्यक्तियों से चर्चा करता है और विद्वतजनों से मार्गदर्शन प्राप्त करता है। वह धर्म एवं  आदर्श के पथ से कभी हटता नहीं है। उन्हें मर्यादा पुरुषोत्तम कहा गया है। उनके जीवन का हर प्रसंग शिक्षाप्रद है, प्रेरणादायक है। चर्चा की इस श्रृंखला का उद्देश्य दर्शकों को राम के जीवन से परिचित कराना है। राम के जीवन को जान कर, समझ कर और आचरण में उतार कर हम अपने जीवन को सुखद एवं समृद्ध बना सकते हैं। समस्त सुधीजनों को अनेकानेक शुभकामनाओं के साथ विनम्रतापूर्वक समर्पित। Valmiki Ramayan is the original epic which narrates the story of Ram.
